Laconia: Difference between revisions

Laconia can trace their roots to a group on [[Devoted]] 2.0, the Revenants. Born out of a shared hatred of the [[Pirates]], it was the fusion of several early-map groups, led by Vapin, Tofee_Dodger, FRESH_Candy, and BuckyHD, with [[ashnwill]] joining later. They were early allies of [[Agora]], who are known on modern CivClassic as Hjaltland (sort of). They formed the Conglomerate which fought the Pirates and [[Ascalon]] (led by Vicccyy and SirCrowley respectively).

Bucky and Fresh began thinking of new names for the group, one of which mentioned was Laconia. This first version of the Laconian state on Devoted 2.0 was essentially ashnwill using the name, building a vault with Tofee_Dodger, [[Malen]], and [[Brocktree]], and attempting to make a preemptive power-play against Agora by invading the [[Semper Union]]. This was foiled by the betrayal of Malen and Brocktree, resulting in his excommunication by the Revenants.

The people who made up the Revenants of old Devoted joined with Yoahtl. They began construction of a fortress on the mesa island north of the old Yoahtlan capitol, Axochitlan to act as its military base. It later got the meme name Mt Doom with its official name becoming Mt Vesuvius.

Due to the soon to be Laconia members discussing land deals with Hjaltland for a portion of the nearby jungle without Yoahtl leadership which angered St_Leibowitz, who wished to have Tofee_Dodger removed due to being the one dealing with the land deal. As a result, Fresh, Bucky, and Tofee left Yoahtl to become their own private group, notably a Company called Quantum Company, as they had planned on 2.0 when being in Yoahtl.

This split resulted in some anger towards the group, notably from WackyAki, and others once people began to join the group. GDan, owner of Danville, as well as LordEmberScar wished to join the group. This resulted in Bucky enacting his plan for Laconia once again as it could no longer be a company with other regions joining. As a result, Danville, Mt. Doom, and a portion of Pumpkintown became property of Laconia, to the resentment of many Yoahtlans.
